Santos
Don’t come for an easy career. Stay for a rewarding one.
At Santos, we do work that matters and always have. When you join us, so will you.
As an ASX 20 global energy company, we’re committed to providing reliable and affordable energy to help create a better world for everyone.
To make it happen, we work as One Team and ask ourselves, “How can we?” (Even when others say, “We can’t.”)
We’re proud of our history as pioneers, problem-solvers, and pragmatists. And as we strive to achieve our Vision2040, we’ve got our sights set on a culture that is focussed and disciplined to drive value, and entrepreneurial and energised to leave a positive legacy.
The difference isn’t just thinking big – it’s delivering on it too.
As part of the team, you’ll tackle one of the most complex problems of our time. It’s no easy task, but nothing rewarding ever is.
What you’ll do:
This position will be responsible for overseeing DevEx’s commissioning and start-up activities for new skid installs and facilities across Eastern Queensland, Cooper Basin, Northern Territory, and Narrabri.
Key accountabilities include:
- Commission a range of greenfield and brownfield infrastructure including wellpad skids, monitoring RTUs and various other electrical and process systems.
- Coordinate troubleshooting of control system code or logic as required.
- Review and approval of quality assurance documentation including field inspection checklists and manufacture data records.
- Support high quality installation practices through site inspection and punch list walk down attendance.
- Create and upload Commissioning Dossiers as per project requirements.
- Proactively minimise the risk of construction or infrastructure online schedule delays.
- Proactively contribute to Santos’ lowest cost objectives through the challenging of design, work methods and practices.
- Develop and maintain healthy relationships with own team, contractors and other Santos stakeholders.
- Recognise that safety is a top priority and always work in a safe manor.
What you’ll bring:
You bring solid experience in the oil & gas or mining industry and the technical expertise required to meet DevEx’s standards. You excel in dynamic environments, work well in teams, and are focused on delivering high-quality results. With a strong safety-first mindset and a drive for continuous improvement, you’re ready to contribute to successful commissioning and start-up activities.
For this role, you will be required to hold a Queensland open electrical licence and preferably have EEHA competencies for hazardous areas, and a Certificate III or IIII in Instrumentation and Control, ensuring safety, compliance, and technical excellence in commissioning and start-up activities.
What you’ll get:
Here, you’ll be amongst high-calibre people and get to work on industry-leading projects. We don’t shy away from solving tough problems at pace. We like it that way. You can expect to be challenged and supported; to learn and grow.
At Santos, we’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone can thrive. This means a place that is safe; where you are valued and respected, and your contribution is recognised and appreciated. Join us, and you’ll play a role in this too.
What you’re part of:
Everywhere you turn you will be a part of a team who are coming together to contribute to our single uniting purpose – to provide reliable and affordable energy to help create a better world for everyone
And because it’s not only what you do, but how you do it, you will also contribute to improving the living standards of the communities where we operate, building enduring and respectful relationships that serve a generation. It’s about each of us, and all of us – together.
